Here's to hoping these are available soon!
    There is only one issue with the JBA and that's the clearance between the arm itself and the coil. I've been beating the piss out of my jeep the last few weeks and have had no issues with them. The RRO UCA's don't have that issue and should be perfect! What did you hear bad about them??

    Well, basically it just doesn't seem like RRO has the best of reputations and especially not so much in the customer service department. I know Steel Armadillo would put full R&D and a great attention to detail into the product...Plus, Super Sliders and UCA's from Steel would be a nice first purchase for me

    Their customer service is definitely lacking but most of their products have pretty good reviews. I have their lift and it was made incredibly well but their shocks were a huge disappointment.

    All shocks that come with the spacer lifts are pretty much junk!!

    I didn't think they would fail within 5k miles especially when the roughest thing I went over in that short time were train tracks!!

    Will keep an eye on this Jon, I definitely need a set, and all the ideas here are great. With your customer service and input to the community I would much rather spend the money with you. I still cant get a response out of RRO.

    Most of the spacer lifts come with hydraulic shocks shocks which really aren't that good at all. That's why I like the OME lift because their shocks are nitrogen. Even the standard shocks that come with the 4 inch BDS are hydraulic.

    Not sure if your interested but one of these days I'll be selling my JBA UCA's. I want the RRO UCA's eventually.
